Half of advisers favour Brexit

Half (50%) of financial advisers contacted by Intelliflo wanted Britain to leave the European Union.

Just over a third (34%) said they wanted to stay in Europe, while one in six were uncertain on whether they will vote for or against a Brexit.

Nick Eatock, Intelliflo’s executive chairman, said: “With three months to go to the vote it’s clear there are many advisers who are still in the process of weighing up the benefits of staying or going.

“However, with half of those we polled saying they will vote ‘no’, it looks like the ‘yes’ campaign have got their work cut out over the coming weeks.”

Regarding the impact leaving would have on business, a quarter (22%) reckoned it would be positive and one in six (17%) thought it would be negative.
